It is entirely up to you whether you prefer a white sapphire or a diamond as a ring setting. Whenever it comes to light reflection, diamonds are by far the most superior material to choose. The same can be said for color. Even though a white sapphire does not appear to be a bad choice, when placed next to a diamond, it may appear dull. Furthermore, diamonds are a tad harder than other gemstones. On the Moh's scale, they have a hardness of 10, whereas sapphires have a hardness of 9. A sapphire can be scratched more easily than a diamond, despite the fact that a 9 is still considered to be fairly hard.
Then there's the matter of the cost. Despite the fact that diamonds and white sapphires have vastly different characteristics, they are frequently compared on the basis of price. White sapphires are about a quarter of the price of a diamond, but it is still considered a gemstone. But, did you know that we have diamonds to suit every price range? If you're not sold on the idea of a white sapphire ring, take a look at the rest of our online jewelry collection instead.
Another option is to use a combination of diamonds and sapphires in your ring. It is possible to find classic combinations, such as blue sapphires and white diamonds, in a ring. Alternatively, there are more contemporary options such as rainbow jewelry, which is made up of a combination of colored sapphires and colorless diamonds. Whatever type of jewelry you're looking for, we're likely to have it in stock. Make an appointment with a diamond consultant to find your ideal piece.
